When I was a small lad I spent all summer playing cricket in the back garden. I dreamt of playing for England, a solid middle order batsman, a man you could relie on in a tight spot to see you through. It soon became apparent even to me that I was crap at cricket, so the dream faded.
In my teenage years and into adulthood I dreamt of writing a book. I wanted to do that then and I still do. In fact I have been slaving over a manuscript for 8 months.

I always wanted to be a doctor speciaising in babies and children, but then decided I wanted to be a paramedic. Off I trotted to college to do a course which would help me on my way, but........ then decided I didn`t want to do that after all and ended up working with make up.
Now im just waiting till my little ones are a bit older so I can go to uni and train to be a midwife.

As a child wanted to work with horses or be a vet. as a teenager, I realised there was no social life or money working with horses and I was too thick to be a vet
As an adult, I just want to start and (sucessfully) complete my degree :shock:

I failed my Chemistry and Biology so not a good start, and I also realised I didnt like blood, so vet wasnt a good career option for me!
For me I wanted to be a Royal Marine..
Passed all exams, went through the physical.. passed again but final selection put an end to it when they discovered I was blind in one eye... Had been since birth. I forgot to mention it, Ooops!!
My career options were laid out to me an an early age.. I could be a Miner, yeah right. A labouror.. pmsl at that or as they said unemployed.. Great options eh. 'Thats what becomes of being single minded on I'm going to be a Royal Marine'.
Never been unemployed, never been skint and always worked for me.. Now employ staff and enjoy a half decent lifestyle so ner ner ner to all the losers who were paid good money to predict and shape my future.. Morons!

Well I passed my Higher grade chemistry and just missed out on my Higher grade physics. Got a couple more Higher grade subjects too but unfortunately just wasn't enough to get in to the course.
I blame the fact that I'd discovered boys and the pub by then on my failure to be earning lots of money by now doing something that I'd love

I wanted to be a famous archaeologist a bit like indian jones, loved going on "huge adventure's" (that were actually like a 10 minute bike ride away) and trying to steal apples from trees in people's gardens pretending it was treasure.
I have a big interest in history and all things not of this time, but alas, i am not indiana jones!!
My ambition now is to cage dive with Great White Sharks (capitals cos they RULE)
